The presidential candidate of Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi has congratulated Afenifere leader, Chief Ayo Adebanjo on his 95th birthday.
In a statement he released on Monday, Obi said he admired and respected Adebanjo’s courage in speaking up against bad governance and flawed public policies, adding that his patriotic fervour is exemplary.
Recall that Adebanjo-led Afenifere openly backed Obi’s presidential bid and Adebanjo physically attended LP presidential rallies.
Adebanjo said the pan-Yoruba sociopolitical group backed Obi for the sake of equity and inclusiveness, and his competence and character.
“On behalf of my family, I wish a very respected father-figure, Afenifere leader and elder statesman, Chief PA Ayo Adebanjo a very hearty happy birthday. Daddy, you have remained a resounding and consistent voice in preaching for a better and egalitarian Nigeria.
“I admire and respect above all, your courage in speaking up on bad governance and flawed public policies. Your patriotic fervour is exemplary.
“As you clock 95 years today, I thank God for the gift of your life to our nation and humanity. Your place in the annals of Nigeria’s history is secure. May God protect and bless you always with abundant health and happiness,” Obi said.
